Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation
Unpacking the Cisco 6260 System
2.4 Unpacking the Cisco 6260 System
Each Cisco 6260 system chassis is securely packaged in a shipping box. The Cisco 6260 system
components ship with the line cards and NI-2 card(s) installed in the chassis.
Caution
Proper ESD protection is required whenever you handle Cisco DSLAM equipment. Installation
and maintenance personnel should be properly grounded using ground straps to eliminate the risk of
ESD damage to the equipment. Cards are subject to ESD damage whenever they are removed from the
chassis.
To unpack the Cisco 6260 system, complete the following steps:
Step 1
Inspect the packing containers.
If any damage or other signs of mishandling are evident, inform both the local freight carrier and Cisco
before unpacking. Your freight carrier can provide you with the procedures necessary to file a claim
for damages.
Step 2
Carefully open the box.
Step 3
Remove all packing material.
Step 4
Remove the chassis from the box.
Warning
Two people are required to lift the chassis. Grasp the chassis underneath the lower edge and lift with
both hands. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back.
Step 5
Carefully open the additional boxes, remove the packing material, and remove the contents.
Step 6
Open the accessory kits and boxes that contain the cables, ferrites, and management software. Do not
use a knife to open these boxes.
2.5 Verifying Contents
To verify that your shipment is complete, make sure that you received everything on your packing list,
and then compare your packing list to your order. If any items are missing or you need additional
information, contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) at one of the following:
•

2.6 Inspecting for Damage
After you verify that all of the equipment is included, carefully examine the assemblies, cards, and cables
for any damage resulting from shipping. If you suspect any damage from shipping, contact your local
freight carrier for procedures on damage claims.
